About this map

Iris and the surrounding mining district of the Gunnison and Saguache County line define this high-elevation landscape as it appeared in the mid-20th century. The settlement at Iris is marked by the presence of the Denver City Mine and Mineral Hill Mine, reflecting a historical reliance on mineral extraction in the region. To the north, homesteading is evident through family-named sites like the Flick Homestead and Mick Homestead, while the eastern portion of the map transitions toward ranching interests such as the Kreuger Ranch near Sillsville.
